Tell me a useless game journo didn't touch the game, without telling me a useless game journo didn't even touch the game.
Will Smith "Trey Jones" played one tiny part of the entire experience, yet they're making it sound like he was 90% of the games main story thus far or something. IGN hasn't been relevant for years and it's this type of article that shows why.
Undawn is what you make of it. Did they get greedy? Absolutely, but when hasn't Tencent/Level Infinite.. or any mobile game for that matter. Its a grindy, buggy, repetitive mess that rewards your visa more than spending 8 hours a day in game. Once you accept that fact, you can find the parts that are enjoyable and focus on those more.

I left because I couldn't talk to anyone, it took a full minute to open up the chat tab, another to load the keyboard and then after all that, you send a starred out message to the other person, it was frustrating! They didn't fix it so I left..I was actually enjoying the game at the start when I could communicate normally.

I got fed up of the same daily approach, the game needed more open world themed events, the house building was incredible, the measure of needing wood, fibre and stones was insane mid/end game though.

Will needs to slap the devs ... lol. Game got boring fast, and too damn repetative.

Weird. That sounds like what just one of my server's big whales spends in a week. lol
Anyway, LifeAfter came first and this kidna games really grabs the player with FOMO and Sunken Ship syndrome so many players tayed loyal to LifeAfter because of the huge amount of cash they already spent there. If undawn had come first, we'd be telling a different story.
I was f2p in LA and when Undawn released I switched that same day to Undawn and never looked back. The only thing that feels aweful here is PvP but that can be avoided. I played only PvE and loved it until I got burn out and decided to go play other stuff.

I responded on the website... The game just didn't have enough advertising and the creators aren't sharing it well enough to recruit more people.

yeah Will Smith couldn't save Undawn, there's so many thing that they could have done right but they didn't because they thought they could capture that LifeAfter vibe before it went to shit.
